Today, the 400
block of East Baltimore Street is known only as "
the Block". The area has been unpopular with the Local
and State governments, but actually has quite a history
for Baltimore movie theaters. One of Baltimore's more
popular movie houses was at 418 East Baltimore Street,
the Rivoli Theatre. The theatre operated from the 1910's
until the 1950's, when the theatre portion was torn
down for a parking garage. The facade survived for
years and was incorporated into the " Block ", but
in the 1990's, half of the 400 block of East Baltimore
Street, including the facade of the Rivoli Theatre
was torn down to make way for a Government
building.........................
